Michael W. Parker Quoted in Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly

From Local Attorneys Weigh in on DOJ’s Reversal on Obama Marijuana Policy:

“The Massachusetts US Attorney stated that his office “will aggressively investigate and prosecute bulk cultivation and trafficking cases, and those who use the federal banking system illegally.” This leaves industry participants and their investors rightfully fearful that they will be prosecuted for the cultivation and sale of cannabis, as well as the use of banks to conduct business. Unless the wholly inconsistent federal and state positions are resolved, the future of the Massachusetts cannabis industry may go up in smoke.”
